Only reason I ask about the drawdown is because the teacher I learned from considers that sort of an important rite of passage when learning, and something you probably want to experience and go through with fake money before you go through it with real money in case you end up blowing up the account with too much size or leverage. Yk, protect your capital as you need it. You don’t want to learn and make the necessary mistakes to learn with your own money. It’s considered important for people’s
Kind of a non sequitor but also, that’s an important feature to have imo. I find that using the paper trader with too much capital or too much buying power teaches me to trade with a lot of capital or big size & large positions. I think it’s probably better to learn with settings that match as closely to whatever your going to be doing with real money
